Influence of Centerline Intermetallic Stringers on Pitting Corrosion Resistance of Superduplex Stainless Steel
2021
Superduplex stainless steel UNS S32750 / EN 1.4410 is commonly used in marine environment, petrochemical, oil and gas, chemical and desalination industries, requiring materials with superior corrosion and mechanical properties. Very few residual intermetallic particles may be present under the form of centerline stringers whose effects on corrosion properties are not well documented. A previous study demonstrated the negligible influence of the intermetallic phases in centerline stringers (typically < 0.1% over thickness) on the hydrogen embrittlement susceptibility of superduplex stainless steel [1]. The present study aims at highlighting the impact of centerline intermetallic stringers on…
Influence de la symétrie et de la taille de la molécule adsorbée sur le processus d'adsorption des composés éthyléniques sur une zéolithe de topologi…
2005
This manuscript lies within the scope of the understanding of the stepped isotherm observed during adsorption, on MFI zeolites, of some organic compounds which have a similar size to that of the pore opening of zeolite. During this work, the process of adsorption of ethylene and tetramethylethylene is initially studied by gravimetry and then by in situ infrared spectroscopy. This last technique enables to follow simultaneously the modifications of the adsorbent and the adsorbate. The analysis of these data lets suppose that the step in adsorption isotherm can be explained by taking account simultaneously of the symmetry and the size of the admolecule. In addition to the infrared bands chara…
Synthesis and characterization of chalcogenide glasses from the system Ga-Ge-Sb-S and preparation of a single-mode fiber at 1.55 μm
2008
International audience; The aim of this work is to study different compositions in the Ga-Ge-Sb-S system for the definition of two compositions compatible with the elaboration of a single-mode fiber at the 1.55 μm telecom wavelength. The variations of the glass transition temperature (Tg), the dilatation coefficient (α) and the refractive index (n) have been studied for two glasses series: GaxGe25−xSb10S65 (series 1), Ga5Ge25−xSb10S60+x (series 2). This study has lead to the choice of the Ga4Ge21Sb10S65 composition as clad glass for the preparation of the single-mode fiber and Ga5Ge20Sb10S65 composition as the core. The discrepancies for the studied parameters between the core and clad comp…
Crystallographic and (spectro)electrochemical characterizations of cobalt(II) 10-phenyl-5,15-di-p-tolylporphyrin
2021
International audience; The synthesis, cyclic and rotating disk electrode voltammograms, UV-visible absorption and Xray diffraction analyses of cobalt(II) 10-phenyl-5,15-dip -tolylporphyrin (1-Co) are described. 1-Co was crystallized by slow diffusion of n-hexane into a concentrated CH2Cl2 solution. X-ray diffraction analyses reveals porphyrin aromatic cycle stacking in the crystal, C-H•••π interactions of the CH2Cl2 solvent with the π-system of one tolyl group and Co(II)•••π (porphyrin ring) interactions. The abstraction of 1.0 F/mol during the electrolysis at the first oxidation potential was followed by spectroelectrochemistry. It leads to the Co(II) → Co(III) transformation rather than …
Visible Light Generation and its Influence on Supercontinuum in Chalcogenide As2S3 Microstructured Optical Fiber
2011
We demonstrate visible light generation in chalcogenide As2S3 microstructured optical fiber. The generated visible light causes irreversible damage to the fiber core because of the high absorption coefficient of chalcogenide glasses in the visible band. The SCs (supercontinua) are measured in both untapered and tapered As2S3 fibers, no wider SC is obtained in the tapered one. The SC growth is prevented by the visible light generation since the damage to the fiber core decreases the fiber transmission substantially. This effect can be avoided by designing the fiber to enable the pump source to work in single-mode operation.

Crystallization kinetics of amorphous SiC films: Influence of substrate
2005
Abstract The crystallization kinetics of amorphous silicon carbide films was studied by means of X-ray diffractometry (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The films were deposited by radio frequency (r.f.) magnetron sputtering on glassy carbon and single crystalline silicon substrates, respectively. TEM micrographs and XRD patterns show the formation of nano-crystalline β-SiC with crystallite sizes in the order of 50 nm during annealing at temperatures between 1200 and 1600 °C. A modified Johnson–Mehl–Avrami–Kolmogorov (JMAK) formalism was used to describe the isothermal transformation of amorphous SiC into β-SiC as an interface controlled, three-dimensional growth processes fr…
Selection and characterization of adsorbents for the analysis of an explosive-related molecule traces in the air
2013
International audience; This study is focused on the development of a 3D micro-preconcentrator for a sensitive analysis of an explosive-related compound: orthonitrotoluene (ONT). A set of potentially efficient adsorbents for the pre-concentration of ONT was investigated here. An in-depth characterization of their textural properties was carried out in order to better understand their adsorption behavior toward the target analyte. More particularly, this study allowed highlighting the interesting adsorption features of a hydrophobic zeolite and a porous activated carbon in relation to their preconcentration performances toward ONT at the ppb level. Moreover, we found a difference in the adso…
Cyclam-functionalized silica-modified electrodes for selective determination of Cu(II)
2009
Cyclam derivatives have been grafted via 1, 2 or 4 silylated arms to the surface of mesoporous silica and the resulting materials have been incorporated into carbon paste electrodes and applied to the preconcentration electroanalysis of Cu(II). Sensitive and selective detection of the target analyte was achieved owing to the attractive binding properties of this macrocyclic ligand towards Cu(II) species. Various parameters likely to affect the preconcentration and detection steps have been studied, including pH of the accumulation medium, composition of the detection solution, structure and composition of the adsorbent, accumulation time, or presence of potentially interfering species. In p…
